Electricity Price Trends in Rochester

Electricity in Rochester is deregulated. As an energy consumer, you can choose a retail electricity provider (your energy company), which gives you flexibility and power over your energy bills.

Deregulation of energy in Texas de-monopolized the energy market for most of Texas, the city of Rochester included, which introduced lots of competition.

As a result, many fantastic power providers compete for your business in Rochester by offering low rates, making it a great time to compare, switch, and lower costs on your electricity statement.

As many as 100+ energy companies compete for your account in Rochester, and there are hundreds of plans to select from.

Average Electricity Rates in Rochester

Got me the cheapest electric. Nice.

How to Find the Best Energy Plan in Rochester

#1 rule: Usage is key!

Knowing how much electricity you will consume monthly is the ideal way to find a deal on electricity in Rochester. Why does this matter?

The “price per kWh” you see energy providers advertising is for an exact monthly usage (usually 1000 kWh).

Every plan has a different calculation for how your monthly bill is determined, and your monthly bill will be determined by how much power you consume in the month.

Unless you match the exact advertised usage each month, you will end up paying a “price per kWh” different than what you saw when you enrolled.

Thankfully, there’s a better way to shop for an electricity provider.

Calculating your total monthly bill based on estimated monthly usage, then comparing rates by total monthly cost is the best way to shop for the lowest rate for you.

Better still, if you have a year of usage history for your household, you can compare plans by total annual cost. This annualized method considers the changes in usage between the summer and winter months and is the absolute best way to discover the ideal energy plan for your home.

ComparePower does all this math for you in an instant. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is done in moments.

We put you in the driver’s seat, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of offers and navigating you step-by-step to the electricity plan that’s best for your home’s usage.

We clarify the details, disclosing the various charges, so you’ll know precisely where your money is going and what to expect on your monthly bill.

We then help you enroll with your chosen power company without leaving our website.

The bottom line is you must understand your expected or historical usage before ordering the best electricity plan for your home.

If you don’t know your usage, estimate

If you cannot acquire 12 months of historical usage or own a brand new home, the next best thing is to estimate how much energy you will use in an average month.

Although knowing the previous 12 months of usage is optimum, it is far better to estimate the average energy consumption than to select the first electricity provider that you see advertised. After all, you have no idea how much energy you will use at that point.

Use ComparePower to find the best electricity plan for your specific usage.

Moving to Rochester: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in Rochester, to get the best rate, you need to get the previous 12 months of energy usage for your new home.

Ask the previous homeowner to provide you with their past 12 months of usage.

This information is readily found in recent billing statements.

Acquiring usage for the past 12 months may take effort, but the time (and savings) will be well worth it.

Once you have historical usage, ComparePower will do the math instantly to help you find the best plan for your home’s usage pattern.

Note: If you cannot obtain historical usage information, a second option would be to estimate your future usage using our “Help Me Choose” tool. By simply entering your zip code, the tool can assess your home’s projected electricity consumption.

Sign-up for a plan instantly through ComparePower. We will remind you when it’s time to come back to switch and save at the end of the plan term you decide on.

Switching Electricity Companies in Rochester

Switching is good. Market conditions are constantly changing, so it is essential to shop for a lower rate each year when your contract is close to expiring.

Your existing energy provider will normally raise your energy rate once your contract expires. If you do not act, you’ll be left on a month-to-month rate significantly higher than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, shop the rates of competing energy companies.

Switching can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars yearly on your energy bill.

Switching is easy:

• You don’t have to contact your current company to cancel (no “break-up call”)
• No one comes to your home
• There is no disruption in your electricity supply
• It takes just minutes

When you decide to switch, your new electricity provider will take care of everything for you, including canceling service with your previous company.

There is no loss of power when you switch. Electricity in Rochester is all delivered by the Oncor Transmission and Distribution Utility.

The wires and poles that deliver power to your home do not change when you switch energy companies. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can pick any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an “early cancellation” penalty. Texas law protects you here.

If you’re still under contract, find out how many months remain on your contract. You can set a future start date with most companies up to 6o days in advance.

The amount saved each month by switching to a different electricity company may outweigh the one-time fee to get out of your contract early.

If you’re ready to switch and would like to know how to find the best plan remember that understanding your usage is the best way to find the best price.

Keep in mind that when you get ready to switch and you want to know the most efficient way to find the right plan at the best rate, it is essential that you first understand your usage. To accomplish that, you must collect the usage history for the past 12 months.
